I'm Crazy for This Girl
Chapter 1
It was a normal day in Sunny Bridges First Year Music Class. Everyone was getting ready to rehearse a song for a band competition against the Eastley's when Principle Luna came in.
"Señor Bridges, I have a new student transferring into your class," Luna announced as he gestured to the door. "Please come in Patience,"
At first, no one came in, and then everyone heard a sigh as a girl came in. She was a fairly pretty girl with her long, wavy brown hair and big green eyes. Her style was a very punky way, with her pink plaid mini skirt, black fishnet top and platform boots.
"Everyone, this is Patience Williams, she is new to Atlanta. Please treat her well," Principle Luna said as he put a head on Patience's shoulder. Patience gave a small smile as she looked at her feet. "Señor Bridges, I leave her in your capable hands," he then left, mumbling something about paperwork he had to do.
"Hey there, Patience, I'm Sunny Bridges. I'll be your music teacher while you're here at Westley," Sunny smiled at the new girl.
"Nice to meet you Mr. Bridges…" Patience's voice had a thick British accent but it was a soft, sweet, melody type voice at the same time.
"You can call me Sunny," he smiled at the shy girl as the boys gawked at her.
"Oh... OK..." Patience nodded as she looked at the class.
"Why don't you have a seat... in between Philly Phil and Li'l D. Boys, will you raise your hands?" The boys hands shoot up as Patience went over to the desk.
"So, Patience, what instruments do you play?" Sunny asked as he went to his desk.
"I play the saxophone, flute, guitar, bass guitar, and piano," Patience looked at her desk, blushing slightly.
"Why don't you play us a little somethin' on the piano?"
"OK..." Patience stood up and went to the piano. She sat at the piano bench and looked like she was thinking of something to play. Soon, she started to play, and sing.
Crashed
on the floor when I moved in
This little bungalow with some
strange new friends
Stay up too late, and I'm too thin
We
promise each other it's 'til the end
Now we're spinning empty
bottles
It's the five of us
With pretty eyed boys girls die to
trust
I can't resist the day
No, I can't resist the day
Jenny
screams out and it's no pose
'Cause when she dances she goes and
goes
Beer through the nose on an inside joke
And I'm so
excited, I haven't spoken
And she's so pretty, and she's so
sure
Maybe I'm more clever than a girl like her
Summer's all in
bloom
Summer is ending soon
It's alright and it's nice not
to be so alone
But I hold on to your secrets in white
houses
Maybe I'm a little bit over my head
I come undone at
the things he said
And he's so funny in his bright red shirt
We
were all in love and we all got hurt
I sneak into his car's
cracked leather seat
The smell of gasoline in the summer heat
Boy,
we're going way too fast
It's all too sweet to last
It's
alright
And I put myself in his hands
But I hold on to your
secrets in white houses
Love, or something ignites in my veins
And
I pray it never fades in white houses
My first time, hard to
explain
Rush of blood, oh, and a little bit of pain
On a cloudy
day, it's more common than you think
He's my first mistake
Maybe
you were all faster than me
We gave each other up so easily
These
silly little wounds will never mend
I feel so far from where I've
been
So I go, and I will not be back here again
I'm gone as the
day is fading on white houses
I lied, wrote my injuries all in the
dust
In my heart is the five of us
In white houses
And
you, maybe you'll remember me
What I gave is yours to keep
In
white houses
In white houses
In white houses
Everyone was gaping when she was finished. After a second, Philly Phil started clapping, then, everyone else followed. Patience looked at her feet with a large blush on her face.
"Great job Patience," Sunny said with a smile. "What song was that?"
"White houses by Vanessa Carlton..." Patience said softly.
"Alright. You may sit down now and we'll start the rehearsal. Patience, I'll give you music sheet's to what we're practicing, OK?"
"OK... Sunny..."
